If you don't know what Deus Ex Randomizer is, then here's our old trailer which shows a breakdown of how it works:

Here's a trailer for WaltonWare mode. WaltonWare mode is focused on quick wins by completing a single bingo line, and increasing difficulty after every win. The bingo goals are all scaled to their minimum settings and you start in a random area. All bingo goals will be completable within just a few maps!

Here's a trailer for our new Mirrored Maps feature in v2.5. Play through the game with a random mix of mirrored maps, which will keep you on your toes even more than the randomizer has before!

Major Changes

• Simplified barrels to combine multiple variants that did the same thing. Also added optional new textures to make it even clearer (look in the Rando menu).
• Weapons that fall out of enemy hands due to damage now have ammo
• M14 Silo: Howard radio room closer to window, and added computer in machine shop
• Added option to automatically put away in-hand items when trying to pick up decorations
• Nerfed automatic power recirculator slightly
• Gas colliding with enemies is now more consistent
• You now start with 6575 skill points, and Zero Rando defaults to Trained pistol with 5000 points remaining like vanilla does (except without the exploit/bug with untraining pistol)
• More goal locations mutual exclusions, to reduce the difference between best seed and worst seed for each mission
  • M02 subway vents start and subway ambrosia because of easy skill points
  • M02 warehouse alley generator and sewer jock, this combo was too easy
  • M08 the 2 bar locations, bar is still the best place to check but now you can't get both Harley and Vinny in the bar at the same time
  • M12 starting front gate and exiting at front gate, because that's too much walking back and forth, also slightly moved front gate start forwards where Tong normally is
